Veteran-led. Member-driven. Now inviting new riders to join our 2026 schedule: 100 Days of BDR.

Who We Are And Why We Ride

Backcountry Expeditions delivers industry-leading adventure motorcycle tours through a vetted membership club.

Our mission is simple:

Give ADV riders the chance to explore America’s most iconic backcountry routes with unmatched professionalism, safety, and camaraderie.

We handle the logistics, so you can focus on the ride, the road (dirt), and relationships with people who make it all worthwhile.

Founded by Neil Taylor, a retired British Special Forces Officer

With deep expertise in global mobility, remote logistics, and mission-focused leadership, the company grew out of a passion for adventure motorcycling and years spent operating in complex, high-stakes environments.

What started as a high-end tour company quickly evolved into something more meaningful: a riding club built on camaraderie, professionalism, and trust.

The ADV Moto Club isn't just about shared trails - it's about shared values and creating experiences that last well beyond the ride.

You can tell this isn’t just a business. Neil’s background and professionalism show in every detail.

Why a Club, Not a Tour?

After many years of running guided tours, one thing became clear:

Riders didn’t want another cookie-cutter trip. They wanted flexibility, professionalism, and good people to ride with.

That’s why we transitioned from a tour company to a member-based riding club.

The ADV Moto Club delivers exactly what our members value most...

Meticulously curated routes, trusted logistics, and a crew worth riding with…

without the hassle of planning every detail or riding with a group of strangers.

We handle the logistics, hotels, and support - giving you your time back to focus entirely on the ride and the camaraderie along the way.

“We didn’t just create a new ride… we created a better way to ride.”

The ADV club format is just brilliant and like nothing else I have come across before. Every ride is meticulously planned and choreographed.

100 Days of BDR: Our Commitment to the ADV Riding Community

In 2026, we’re embarking on an ambitious adventure: riding every Backcountry Discovery Route® and BDR-X across the country (club members get to choose which rides they want to join).

Miles of Backcountry Terrain

We’re calling it 100 Days of BDR to spotlight the work of the BDR organization, whose mission to create and preserve off-road routes has been a key part of our own story for nearly a decade.

Our long-standing partnership with BDR reflects a shared commitment to access, stewardship, and the future of adventure riding in America.

Throughout the 100 Days of BDR, we'll be providing real-time route updates, condition reports, and recommendations for additions or alternate routes.

It's our way of giving back to the riding community and helping future riders have epic experiences on these iconic trails.

100 Days of BDR is more than just a collection of rides… it’s a reflection of what we stand for:

Thoughtful planning, professional execution, and a belief that the ride should be as rewarding as the destination.

It’s a way to honor the routes that define our sport and to show what’s possible after 15 years of the BDR organization.

Throughout the 2026 season, we’ll be riding, documenting, and sharing the experience.

We hope you'll follow along, be inspired to explore BDR routes yourself, or come ride with us.

Joining the ADV Moto Club is how you make that happen.

I’ve ridden with standard tour companies and sadly some of my experiences were less than satisfactory. The club format I’ve found here is so much better with an assured fantastic ride every time.

Everything You Get as a Club Member

1. A Premium Riding Experience (Without the Planning Headache)

We do all the heavy lifting, from route design to hotel bookings to on-the-ground support, so you can focus on what matters: riding world-class trails with good people.

2. Access to America’s Best Backcountry Rides

Each season includes multiple, curated expeditions along Backcountry Discovery Routes and other iconic terrain. You’ll ride through epic landscapes… with expert logistics and zero guesswork.

3. Ride as Much as You Want, When You Want

Membership gives you access to multiple ride opportunities each year. Join as many rides as you want and only pay for the days you attend. Total flexibility, built around your schedule.

4. Single Occupancy Accommodations, Every Time

No bunk beds, no sharing rooms. Our members enjoy comfortable, private lodging wherever we go (even when it's remote).

5. Ride at Your Pace, Your Style

Whether you like to push hard or take it slow, the club format gives you flexibility. Explore at your own pace, regroup at key points, and enjoy daily options for harder or easier routes depending on your mood and energy.

6. Camaraderie You Can Count On

This isn’t a loose tour group. It’s a vetted membership club built on mutual respect, shared adventure, and a team-first mindset. You’ll explore with capable, likeminded riders… and probably share a beer with them at the end of the day.

7. Full-Support, Expedition-Ready

Each expedition is backed by a dedicated support recovery truck and fully outfitted trailer (mobile clubhouse). We carry fuel, air, spare wheels, tires, and tools - plus a spare motorcycle for worst-case mechanical issues. The mobile clubhouse is stocked with coolers, coffee, snacks, and hauls your excess luggage between hotels.

8. A Truly All-Inclusive Experience

Every ride includes single-occupancy lodging, all meals, snacks, drinks, and even alcohol - nothing nickeled and dimed. Arrive with a motorcycle (bring your own or rent one) and your riding gear – we’ve got the rest covered.

9. Member Perks That Keep Giving

As part of the club, you’ll also get access to exclusive discounts from trusted industry partners - because the benefits shouldn’t stop when the ride ends.

10. Time Back, Adventure Forward

The club saves you weeks of planning every season. We’re not just offering rides, we’re giving you your time back and handing you the keys to the best rides in the country.

You just show up and ride. The rest is handled.

Is This Club Right for You?

Joining the ADV Moto Club could be the best riding decision you’ll make. It isn’t a tour for the masses...

It’s a club for ADV riders who value their time.

Our members agree their time is best spent on the trails… not planning or guessing the outcome of the next ride. They enjoy the machine, the ride, and the backcountry.

And when the day’s done, they enjoy a good meal, a cold drink, and the kind of camaraderie that only comes from shared experience.

Most of all, they value their time.

They value the ability to show up, ride, and enjoy the kind of adventure they wouldn’t have the time to plan themselves.

If that sounds like you, you’ll fit in just fine.

You’ll Fit Right In If:

You’re a proficient rider - not an expert, just solid

You value your time and want a fully planned, professionally supported ride

You want real camaraderie over group tours with strangers

You appreciate an all-inclusive experience and don’t want to be nickeled and dimed

You’re a team player who wants to ride with likeminded riders

You’ve been looking for a better way to experience the backcountry

This Isn’t for You If:

You’re brand new to off-road or adventure motorcycling

You’re looking for instruction or training

You’re after a budget trip

You want to plan your next adventure yourself

You struggle to ride respectfully as part of a group

PLEASE NOTE: We do not charge the annual membership fee until after your first ride with the club - this ensures the club is right for you.

What makes this different is the people. Everyone Is capable, respectful, and genuinely there for the experience.

In Their Own Words: Why Riders Choose the ADV Moto Club

Here's what our members have to say about their experiences riding with Backcountry Expeditions and the ADV Moto Club.

"I've ridden with plenty of groups, but this is fundamentally different.

You know every detail has been considered, which lets you genuinely relax into the ride and enjoy it in ways I've never experienced anywhere else."
Erik
"The club format is brilliant, especially the flexibility to choose how hard or relaxed you want each day’s ride to be. Having the single occupancy lodging and all-inclusive setup means there’s zero hassle - I can just focus entirely on the ride and the camaraderie. It’s become my benchmark for any riding trip."
Patrick
"This is honestly buying back my time. I love to ride, but planning and managing logistics is exhausting. Now, I just show up, ride fantastic trails, and enjoy the kind of friendships you can only build through shared adventures. It’s an investment - but worth every penny."
Michael
"It's rare to find a group where everyone is genuinely respectful and capable. Here, you’re riding with real adults who know what they're doing. Nobody’s trying to prove anything; it's just good people who genuinely enjoy riding together. That atmosphere alone makes the club unique."
Pedro
"Their dedication to supporting BDR routes and giving back to the riding community shows they’re in it for the right reasons. Riding with them is about so much more than just having fun - it’s about being part of something bigger. It’s changed how I view riding entirely."
